The wig-wearing volunteer, who has a flair for fashion, put together the “Give a Wig!” collection drive, with the goal of putting a smile on the face of a patient who has lost their hair due to treatment. <br /><br />“I love wigs, and I’ve worn many over the years. This is a chance for everyone to help a cancer patient, and it’s so easy,” said Williams. <br /><br />To participate on Saturday, July 19, donors can simply place their freshly washed wig in a zip-lock bag and drop it off at one of the three participating locations: <br /><br />Uni Beauty Supply and Salon, 12220 Pigeon Pass Rd., Moreno Valley, next to Farmer Boys MVP Beauty, 24515 Alessandro Blvd., in Moreno Valley Wigs on Wheels at March Air Force Base, next to the Commissary near the Graham and Cactus gates. <br /><br />The Society’s “Look Good…Feel Better” program is for patients dealing with the appearance-related side effects of cancer treatment. Participants receive wonderful instruction on how to deal with loss of hair, eyebrows, eyelashes, and more from a specially-trained volunteer licensed cosmetologist. Patients also are gifted with a bag of free makeup from national sponsors such as Avon, Estee Lauder, and Clinique, valued at over $300. <br /><br />The Look Good…Feel Better program is available in a dozen locations throughout the Inland Empire. To sign up for the program, call the American Cancer Society at (800) ACS-2345. To find out more about donating wigs, call Alynn Rannalli in the patient services department of the American Cancer Society at (951) 300-1202.<img src="//feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~4/mDnKgay9qzA" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~3/mDnKgay9qzA/american-cancer-society-collecting-new.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (KimiRho)0http://urbanlyfestyles.blogspot.com/2008/07/american-cancer-society-collecting-new.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459482466876259185.post-3756844648392263956Mon, 14 Jul 2008 16:30:00 +00002008-07-14T12:40:57.024-04:00dr. tommie smithurban issuesDr. Tommie Smith, Olympic Peace Sign Legend Speaks This Friday<a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHuBW09thbI/AAAAAAAAAdM/omXr7qg0sDg/s1600-h/DrTommieSmithcopy.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHuBW09thbI/AAAAAAAAAdM/omXr7qg0sDg/s400/DrTommieSmithcopy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5222910422040806834" /></a><br /><br /><br />Dr. Tommie Smith, author/activist/Olympic track legend, speaks at the Urban Issues Breakfast this Friday in Los Angeles, CA...breakfast will be free.

The Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo is an innovative, educational and exciting perspective of the history of the Black American West.<br /><br />In fact, Texas was discovered and explored by a Black cowboy named Estavanico, and over 35% of the cattle trail drivers in Texas were Black. Entire Black communities existed on the frontier of the Old West - over one-half million families in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas alone. <br /><br />The famous Lewis and Clark Expedition was led by a Black scout, and a Black cowboy named Bill Pickett. Bill created "bulldogging", which has become one of the major rodeo events today.<br /><br />Realizing the historical significance of the Black cowboy, Lu Vason developed the Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo Series which is the first of its kind. In September, 1984, the first Bill Pickett Black Rodeo drew thousands of spectators and has grown into a series that is witnessed by over 70,000 annually.<br /><br />Bill Pickett Invitational Rodeo: <br /><strong>"It's a rodeo, African American style!"</strong><img src="//feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~4/DlUq5Qd6abo" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~3/DlUq5Qd6abo/bill-pickett-rodeo-brought-to-you-by.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (KimiRho)0http://urbanlyfestyles.blogspot.com/2008/07/bill-pickett-rodeo-brought-to-you-by.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459482466876259185.post-6088125086977649409Tue, 08 Jul 2008 03:35:00 +00002008-07-07T23:58:48.593-04:00african americansconferencehealthy heritagewellnessFree HIV, Prostate Cancer Screenings & More At Healthy Heritage Movement<a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHLl1cABEzI/AAAAAAAAAcs/8F-cpmo_4K0/s1600-h/HealthHeritagecopy.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHLl1cABEzI/AAAAAAAAAcs/8F-cpmo_4K0/s400/HealthHeritagecopy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5220487624287916850" /></a><br /><br />UrbanLyfeSyles is bringing you Urban Health...healthy relationships means a healthier you. <br /><br />A young black woman who survived breast cancer at an early age will highlight a conference that will motivate other African Americans to take charge of their health. Nikia Hammonds Blakely is keynote speaker for the free Healthy Heritage Wellness Conference, taking place from 8am to 4pm Saturday July 26th at <a href="http://www.calbaptist.edu/">California Baptist University</a>, 8432 Magnolia Street., Riverside. The conference offers speakers, information booths and interactive sessions aimed at improving the overall health and well being of the Black community. The theme of this year's conference is "Healthy Relationships, A Healthier You."<br /><br />"Maintaining healthy relationships is not easy, but it can be done", Clark said. "The Healthy Heritage Wellness Conference 2008 will provide tools and resources to help develop and maintain these relationships." According to a San Bernardino County Department of Health report, African Americans in San Bernardino County die 13 years younger than whites. Many African American lives are shortened by illnesses such as diabetes, high blood pressure(hypertension), heart disease, HIV/AIDS and cancer.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.healthyheritagemovement.com/">The Healthy Heritage Wellness Conference </a>will feature speakers who bring vast knowledge from medical/emotional health, faith, and Afrocentric worlds...including Dr. E.M. Abdlulmumin, a psycologist at the University of California, Charles Fossit III of Montclair, a sociology professor and author of Heartbrokers and Marriagebrokers, two books that explore personal relationships...among many other speakers.<br /><br />For more information or to make a reservation to attend this event, call (951) 565-4431 OR email hhwcmovement@yahoo.com.<img src="//feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~4/srYKkKE26L0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~3/srYKkKE26L0/free-hiv-prostate-cancer-screenings.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (KimiRho)0http://urbanlyfestyles.blogspot.com/2008/07/free-hiv-prostate-cancer-screenings.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459482466876259185.post-7878813919008764593Tue, 08 Jul 2008 03:28:00 +00002008-07-08T00:23:47.685-04:00million father marchstreet positiveurbanlyfestyles mediaUrbanLyfeStyles Presents Million Father March<a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHLepyCQgQI/AAAAAAAAAcc/b5_uNNt331Y/s1600-h/MillionFatherMarchcopy.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SHLepyCQgQI/AAAAAAAAAcc/b5_uNNt331Y/s400/MillionFatherMarchcopy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5220479727463072002" /></a><br /><br />It's fatherhood vs fatherless...and <a href="http://urbanlyfestyles.com">UrbanLyfeStyles</a> is proud to bring to you Street Positve's Million Father March.<br /><br /><em>Special Message From Street Positive</em><br /><br />"It is said that you can tell the interest of a person by where they put their time and money.<br /> <br />Consider then, the status of our nation's youth.

We know how hard it can be for fathers, especially the single ones...and they are out there. This is your day to sit back, relax, and have some work done for YOU. So, we hope you got that big screen TV you wanted, or maybe that new power tool...and if not, we at least hope you got a new tie. ;-)<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SFWVfOacl3I/AAAAAAAAAY4/KGx0PS2xbdk/s1600-h/UrbanLyfeStylesFATHERSDAYcopy.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9obRqEkLeu8/SFWVfOacl3I/AAAAAAAAAY4/KGx0PS2xbdk/s400/UrbanLyfeStylesFATHERSDAYcopy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212236507428722546" /></a><img src="//feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~4/WR7qqBckI-M" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Urbanlyfestyles/~3/WR7qqBckI-M/urbanlyfestyles-sends-out-happy-fathers.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (KimiRho)0http://urbanlyfestyles.blogspot.com/2008/06/urbanlyfestyles-sends-out-happy-fathers.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-459482466876259185.post-9222489971998244954Thu, 12 Jun 2008 20:19:00 +00002008-06-12T16:25:51.328-04:00black business expobook clublos angelesurbanlyfestyles magazineUrbanLyfeStyles Book Club AuthorsThe new national online UrbanLyfeStyles Magazine will be premiering at the Los Angeles Black Business Expo.

The March issue will begin its first feature from businesses in that area. Account Executive Mr. Darnell Dugger is the exclusive representative for the Victorville/Palmdale/Lancaster area. In addition, Urban Lyfestyles Magazine (ULM) and The Guardian Jet Center at Los Angeles Ontario International Airport have created a joint partnership. ULM will be distributed thorough the terminal as well as on the private Aircrafts. The Guardian Jet Center, through Bill Titus, will feature information about the private airline industry. <br /> <br />Mr. Titus will take the reader inside various aircrafts to learn about unique features each type of aircraft possesses, examine avenues for investing in private airlines and so much more! “Many business owners do not know how practical and effective it is to purchase an aircraft and allow that aircraft to bring in high revenue streams,” states Mr. Titus.<br /><br />“The opportunities for advertisers and featured guests of the magazine are enormous!” states Kimi Rhochelle, publisher of Urban Lyfestyles Magazine. “We are so excited about these expansions and joint ventures because it allows the ethnic businesses, churches and organizations to reach a broader and wider market. In fact, several areas of the magazine are booked all the way until August 2008. This included Beauty/Health, Gospel, and soon Finance. Businesses in these industries that want to be featured in the magazine need to secure their spot now for later issues in 2008 and all of 2009 year.”<br /><br />Advertisers still have an opportunity to advertise at introduction rates. However, due to additional joint ventures with the magazine and other major corporations, rates will be increase within the year. Various headings such as Restaurants, Arts, Book Club, Entertainment & Teen Scene have special discounted rates for businesses to take advantage.<br /><br />Urban Lyfestyles Magazine is the only full color, high quality ethnic publication that will exclusively serve the Riverside and San Bernardino Counties as well as Palmdale and Lancaster. The purpose: “to give positive exposure of African American families, entrepreneurs, seniors, youth, singles through a gorgeous periodical to empower the African American person that will then empower others which in turn can make powerful changes within their local communities!” states Kimi Rhochelle.<br /><br />For more information, to advertise or to subscribe, please call 909-543-2978.
